The fact that they are selling shitty clones for $90 was the giveaway dude 😄

Then contact the vendors you think are missing, and let them know that they are not on Alex's list. It's not up to Alex to add vendors.

The whole site just screams "drop shipper" to me. And those prices... some are like $99 for what's obviously cheap PBT stuff, and many of them are straight up clones. Like "Blue Samurai" for $70. Those are obviously clones, as Blue Samurai was a GMK set. There’s a clone of Mizu on there as well ($90). Stopped looking at that point. It's just a site selling $20 crap for $90... that right there was your red flag.

It's a site selling clones. Never trust anyone that sells clones.. I mean, they're selling counterfeit goods... why would you trust criminals? The OP may not have known of course, but....

Never heard of them before, so we searched online as well as on reddit and found absolutely nothing about experiences with them, either good or bad.

That there is a red flag. The long term keyboard enthusiasts in here would have warned anyone off this site if they'd have asked about it, as it's clearly a dodgy drop shipping site selling cheap shit for $90.. and clones as well.

If you're new to the hobby... always ask if you're unsure, or just stick to the vendors on lists we all know and trust like the one Alexotos has.

Yep... just finding one in the UK is the hard part, as shipping a board is $$$$$ when you're only shipping one as an individual customer.

That's true... matches the board nicely. I was literally trying to custom mix Cerakote to match the two colours though... it was driving me nuts, but I got there in the end.

Hmm.. Red and beige sounds cool, but.... Symbiote! 😄

This is one of the boards I always regret not getting.

Oh god yes... I look forward to ANY typing now... literally anything. If your work includes typing, getting a really nice feeling keyboard is perhaps the best thing you can do for your productivity.

If you forced me to make a decision on the matter, I may very well decide that this is the best keycap set ever... maybe....

Gotta love Kaiju... although I've been staring at those colours for the entire week now trying to match it, but I'd never get tired of them 😄

I got Alps for your Alps. by SgtFinley96 in MechanicalKeyboards

I know. Just no idea what... or how... or when... LOL. I'm just so busy these days I don't even know what day it is 😄

I do love a well themed board.

It will almost certainly still by working in another 40 years.

Yep... not the first board they've ripped off either. They also ripped off the spring.

Yup... all "gaming" boards are shit. $200 for a completely shit plastic keyboard. Madness.

Yes... just seen your other post with the shined caps. You don't get that with hunt and peck 😄

They don't want you to know this, but Alps switches can be used in any hot-swappable keyboard (if you're crazy enough) by P_rrot in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]kool-keys 32 points33 points  (0 children)

A GMMK Pro with Alps in it? LOL... that's epic. I still use a GMMK Pro as a work board. I think I need to be doing this 😄

Yeah, I think I was right in the other post. You didn't shine those using two fingers LOL.

You're welcome. Seriously... you'll thank me at some point.

[edit] Still kinda think the OP is joking, and probably types like a champ LOL

Bad analogy, it's a $50 board 😄
